Stopped by near opening on 9/17/25. Big place, rustic, open. Big patio. Tiny bar and some tables inside. Cool and friendly bartender. Nice relaxed vibe. Was hooked up with a few extra samples beyond my flight (or did I do two?). Ubered here so not sure of parking. Prices solid. A few beers to go. Got a collab brett beer they did with Cigar City which was good. There I tried a pale ale, IPA, ESB, a couple IPAs with some foraged ingredients. Overall nice stop, especially with two other nice breweries in the neighborhood.

Big and open space reminiscent of an old school industrial commercial building. I moved away from Cartersville in 1995 and I still recognized this building from the outside. No food available. Was pretty slow at opening. Service good. Tried two flights... had a kveik table beer, wine barrel saison,Belgian strong ale, oatmeal stout, and a few IPAs. Most beers perfectly drinkable. Maybe a tiny flaw but overally pretty solid. Definitely worth a stop if in Cartersville.

Cask at the brewery, 7/19/25. Murky pale orange, large white head, good retention. Aroma of yeast, spice, wheat, sweet citrus. Taste matches but with strong citrus. Well balanced.
